New floors laid over Saltillo tile with radiant heat???

4 years ago

Hoping someone can give us an answer. We are wanting to replace our 50-year-old Saltillo tile floor. There are MANY reasons, and I know they appear good but they’re not. Here’s the issue, our home is heated by radiant heat, hydronic, in the slab underneath. We’ve been told by one flooring contractor that the Saltillo HAS to be demoed. Another said not at all a problem to float an LVP floor over the Saltillo tile. The tile is very uneven and many are cracked. Is there anyone out there who has experience with this that can advise re taking floor out or floating over? Will the heat still be able to conduct if we go over?? THANKS for any advice.
